Rosanne Cash is an outspoken supporter and performer in the Americana Alternative Country Music movement. It's great music being created by fabulous performers of all ages and all nationalities. From the kids in the Carolina Chocolate Drops, The Lone Bellow, Avett Brothers to Cash, Emmylou Harris, and even Englishmen Billy Bragg and Richard Thompson.

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend the PBS special "Nashville 2.0: The Rise of Americana". I'm sure it will be rerun on PBS a number of times, if you can catch it, it's fabulous.
